Thats not silly. 7x2mm Viton. Probably spend a couple dollars max. I buy them in bulk (I do a lot of carbs) and they are like 14 cents each....
If you are getting that much of a smell, I would expect the key hole to be moist under the lid. Was yours a California model?
In the U.S. 84/85 had the bigger carbs (32mm) and NON line-bored heads. 86 got smaller carbs (30mm), lined bored. 85: 16211-MJ8-000 86:...
Then I'm not a "real" man. I'm a realist.
SM, I don't think English is his first language. I think he's doing OK describing. But I think we have a first time V4 carb situation here....
This is a plug (CR9EH-9) that had a bunch of miles, but the bike was running / fueling perfect. Tan / Latte colored is what I want. Not too...
I'm always nervous to touch those things, I have never cracked one open. Like a plastic drain valve on a radiator. "Now yer fucked." And I...
My 92 is fresh from a COMPLETE carb rebuild (with stock jetting except for +1 on pilot), PAIR and CA bullshit removal. It smells a little rich,...
Just cuz it's not dripping doesn't mean its not leaking when running/being used. When was the last time you had the tank off to look for moisture?
Part of the problem in a situation like this is that you can tell us what you did, it doesn't mean it was done right. Again, was this your first...
NOW we are in the realm of all the work you performed. Was this your first V4 carb rebuild? Vacuum slides - not installed correctly or damaged....
Correct. You can connect to the negative battery terminal on the bike too.
Get it back together and fill with distilled water. Run and drain, then fill with coolant. You can also wrap a rag around an air gun tip and...
I deleted my first post, and it was regarding the battery. When SO MUCH work has been done on such a critical part of the bike, there are SO...
If I had an opportunity on a really good deal for a quality lift, I don't think I would pass either. Think I would make it work. It's just that...
Well, that was kind of a no-brainer. Nice.
Oh my god... that is one of the worst renderings I have seen in a long time. Tubular handlebars? That will instantly hit the fairing and/or...
I mis-read yours, I apologize. The shocks are technically different, not just a longer clevis. The shock needs to be longer, that info has...
Please start a new thread if you have further questions or updates, it sounds like you got this pretty much figured out and anything else will be...
The part that the shock directly bolts to is different from 86 to 87. You have an 86 bike, so you need a longer shock, not a different linkage...
Separate names with a comma.
